Valve is great in terms of Linux support and it's development, but to be honest I hate Steam launcher too. I do not use the store frontend, friendlist, notifications and other things on top, all I want is to download game binaries and updates.

You can still make shortcuts to your steam games to launch them outside of steam. However I have noticed that the Blizzard launcher doesn't seem to fully quit after quitting the system tray icon, I have to click stop game in steam. I guess I still prefer this to having unused wine/proton process running in the background.
